About No Child Without®

No Child Without® is a charitable program
that offers all elementary school aged children with medical conditions or allergies,
free MedicAlert protection regardless of their financial resources.

Our vision is to help protect the estimated 300,000 children with medical conditions
across Canada by offering No Child Without®
to all 12,000 elementary schools over the next 5 years.

Why is No Child Without® important?

Children are the most vulnerable persons in our society, especially
during a medical emergency or crisis. Safe guarding your children’s health
is our priority. That is why the Canadian MedicAlert Foundation is partnering with the Lions Clubs of Canada and
schools across the country to introduce the No Child Without®
program at no cost to families. With the rise in childhood diabetes, asthma
and allergies, thousands of children have a medical condition, allergy or special
need that should be communicated to medical personnel in an emergency. The No
Child Without® program has been created to provide these
students with the 24 hour protection of the MedicAlert emergency information
services.

During the school day a child will interact with many different individuals
and may be exposed to a variety of situations that could result in the need
for emergency care. It could be at recess, at lunch, in the classroom or after
school at a friend’s house or at a sports activity. Parents tell us that
they want to ensure that vital medical information about their child is readily
available and can be accurately communicated in an emergency.

“No Child Without® allows parents to feel safer while their children are in the care of others throughout the school day and it makes our jobs easier - with no cost to our school or the school board.”
